Can a passanger drink alcholic drinks in a moving vehicle in missouri?!


Question: Missouri is one of the few states in the U.S. that does not have a STATEWIDE open container law for passengers. However, certain municipalities/counties have enacted such laws (but not many). Therefore, it is legal for passengers to drink in moving vehicles in most, but not all, parts of Missouri. It would be best to check your local and county laws first.

No. If you want to drink alcohol in your car, make sure that the vehicle is parked in front of your residence so that you don't have to drive home after drinking.

Only if you want a DUI. No, you may not have open containers in Mo, nor drink and drive. The police frown on that one. Besides, don't you want to get home safely to your loved ones? Be smart, don't drink and drive.

This may or may not be a DUI, but it would certainly violate an open container law. Basically, the cop can reasonably suspect that the driver has ready access to booze and could become DUI at any point, so they would certainly not be amused if the driver was pulled over. Remember you don't need to be pulled over because you were all over the road -- a blown tailight is good enough reason.

having any open alcoholic beverage in any state is against the law.
